Eric, I've been using IBeM for some time now on my A3000. I have an IBM partition set up on the hard drive and IBeM boots up off of that. I run Word Perfect and many other MS-DOS programs without many problems. Here is the mountlist entries I use for IBMA: and IBMB:. Note that I am using CrossDos to do this instead of MSH: IBMA: Device = mfm.device Unit = 0 Flags = 0 Surfaces = 2 BlocksPerTrack = 9 Reserved = 1 Interleave = 0 LowCyl = 0; HighCyl = 79 /* 80 track drive */ FileSystem = L:MSDOSFileSystem Buffers = 5 BufMemType = 0 Stacsize = 4000 Priority = 5 GlobVec = -1 DosType = 0x4D534400 Mount = 0; # IBMB: Device = mfm.device Unit = 2 Flags = 0 Surfaces = 2 BlocksPerTrack = 9 Reserved = 1 Interleave = 0 LowCyl = 0; HighCyl = 79 /* 80 track drive */ FileSystem = L:MSDOSFileSystem Buffers = 5 BufMemType = 0 Stacksize = 4000 Priority = 5 GlobVec = -1 DosType = 0x4D534400 Mount = 0; # This is almost a duplicate of the mountlist that comes with CrossDos. I mount IBMA: and IBMB: in my start-up sequence. I do not know if this will work on your system, but it might give you a starting point. I believe that CI$ has internet mail, in which case you can E-Mail a letter to the author of IBeM (his E-Mail address is in the docs). I have done so myself (via usenet) and he responds very rapidly to questions. JP
